Hey Josh? Josh Wheeler? You didn’t need to tell us that. In fact, we’re going to go on record that you SHOULDN’T have told us that. We didn’t need to, nor want to, know that piece of personal information. As the picture tells us, very few people were happy to learn that Joshua Wheeler had used that line as his senior yearbook quote.
One of them was Mrs. Wheeler. Also, hey, just so everybody knows, the carpets pretty much always match the drapes. We can’t believe that this is what this article has turned into, but you work with the material you’re given. Wait, was he referring to the length, too? Because whoa, dude, gross. Maybe if we’re lucky someone will pass a law about keeping that sort of information to yourself.
We Don't Think That's in the Bible
Jaylen Moore has some very interesting theological ideas about what you need to do to get the things you want. We’ve checked, and we don’t think that this idea is present in the Good Book anywhere. Yes, obviously God forgives, but...the rest of it is a big knot of questionable theology.
Sure, there’s a chance that a new bike will land right in your lap, but there are lots of stores that sell them, too. There are some pricey ones, but most of them aren’t all that expensive. Like, what, a hundred bucks? That’s not nothing to a high school kid, but it’s not a whole lot of money. Also, a black kid making a joke about stealing a bike? Risky, but then again the best jokes all contain some risk.
It Can Be Better
Sure, your life might not be perfect. Maybe you’re stuck in class, or working a long shift at the sock factory, or trying to figure out what to do in college. But you can, at least, always imagine that you're on a boat. Get every single one of your senses engaged. That’s what Brian Essbe – and by extension, Garrett Hamrick – believe.
Maybe they’re trying to tell us that it’s never as bad as it feels. Maybe they’re trying to give us something to strive for. Maybe they’re just saying that they love being on boats. One way or another, we’re not sure how else to take that quote. It’s only just barely uplifting and has just a smidge of humor. Maybe Garrett just thought it was a lot funnier than we do.
As it Turns out, Yes
Some people don’t have a whole lot to say. Try and try as they might, they just can’t come up with a pithy quote or a piece of memorable advice for the yearbook. When it’s such a person’s turn to write their senior yearbook quote, they do what they can. Joseph Cappelletti, for instance, just had a little bit of fun using the yearbook as a medium.
You can just put whatever you want in there, it doesn’t have to be anything meaningful. As this article has so clearly shown us. You can actually type anything, and it will show up in the yearbook. What a delight. What a joy. Joseph had the world at his fingertips (as long as it wasn’t edited) and he decided to make a goofy gag. Joseph, you have our respect.
It's Not Just the Students
Uh oh, the quote madness has spread to the teachers of the high schools! Soon nobody will be safe. This teacher decided to drop a little quote from Childish Gambino about...getting lots of tail? And how the person she’s speaking to is fake? What? Why? Who fell asleep at the wheel to allow this teacher to leave such a quote?
No, wait, we think we know what happened here. This was the teacher that was in charge of the yearbook club, and the students that were part of that club decided to pull a sneaky on her. Instead of the normal quote that she wanted – or even if she didn’t supply a quote to them – they decided to put in something that was out of character. Well, we hope that she liked it anyway.
